Gallinaceors yan,laIs,

II. ID. Thoreau was once called upon by
Mrs. II. w. Emerson, whose flower gar
den was being scratched up by the hens,
to help her devise some plan to prevent
further damage. After a consideration
of ways and means, Mrs. Emerson hit
upon the expedient of putting linen
gloves upon the feet of the gallinaceous
yandals.
Thorcau, who had keen sense OF
humor, restrained the laughter which
was nearly choking him, and gravcly,
under Mrs. Emcrson's direction. Iandaged
the claws Of the assembled barnyard in
stout linen cloth. For an hour or 80 the
fowls did no harm. and the Emerson
household was greatly pleased.
Finally there was heard an cxultant
crow. The rooster had scratched through
his bandages and was triumphing over
his exploit. The hens followed suit, and
Mrs. Emerson was reduced 10 despair,
while Thoreau went to the woods, where
he could let his laughter have vent

Paupers' Craving for Drinking.

Nearly fOur-lifths Of those who come
to the poorhouse are brought there by
drink. In their younger days, when
they should have been laying away some
thing for oil age, they were spending
their money for drink. OF course. mis-
fortune brought many of them to want
but drink wrought the poverty Of most
of them. When, therefore, they have
been with me for some time, without
having tasted liquor, they will drink any
thing 10 satisfy their old craving. We
used In have an annex in n rented house
across the road from the main building,
but were forced TO give it up, rs the
paupcrs found it easy TO steal away and
get tipSy. IL was mystery where they
got the money to buy the liquor, but
they got il. They would pick up rags,
iron. craps. and borrow each others
clothes and sell them for drink. We
could not always keep our eyes on them,
and they would manage TO escape.
Once in awhile they steal march on
us by drinking the mash for the yeast in
the bakery. and | have known an old
fellow to swallow bottle of medicine for
the pleasure il would give him TO burn
his thrWt. They have drank indigo and
other liquids, and get tipsy, too. 1t is a
very curious craving, this old love for
drink that keeps gnawing in men and
women 60 and 20 years of age. The love
of tobacco is equally strong, and the only
interest they show in life is when we
give out the rations of smoking and
plug tobacco. .-Poorhouse Superintendent

THE legal status of the strike and
the boycott is being gradually fixed by
the courts. Two decisions of more
than usual Importance have just been
rendered, one by Judge Brown of the
United States district court and the
other by the supreme court Of errors Of
Connecticut. In the former case a
number Of men were arrested upon
suit by steamship company 10 re-
cover damages for interference with
its business. The defendants were
charged with causing the company's
workmen TO quit work in a body, de-
claring a boycott Of the company's
business and endeavoring by means Of
Intimidation tD prevent other persons
from dealing with the company. The
court held that the acts of the defend.
ants were no. only illegal, so as to
render the defendants liable in dam.
ages, but were also misdemeanors at

section of The New York penal code
directed against conspiracy. The
court characterized the association Of
the defendants for the purposes men.
toned as an illegal combination, and
declared that all acts done in further.
ance Of those purposes were actionable.
In the Connecticut case the court af.
firmed the conviction Of three mem.
bers At Typographical union for con-
spiracy In boycotting newspaper for
refusing to pay union rates TO its
printers. The broad ground upon
which the courts proceed in those
cases is that associations formed with
